I haven't seen it in the spec yet. Your reference implementation does not
define anything, it *only* implements the spec and serves as something
people can check their programs for interoperability with. It had been
solved with the old key format, though...

It is a feature of PGP2.6.3(i)n since months.

Yes but that does not replace the need for it to be outlined in the spec.
